After a four-year battle with an aggressive form of Medulloblastoma, Kasey passed away peacefully on August 16, 2025. During those years, she endured countless surgeries, craniotomies, chemotherapy, radiation, and clinical trials. Through it all, Kasey’s light never dimmed. Her love of music, her kindness, and her determination inspired everyone around her.

Kasey gave everything she had in her fight, but the lack of treatment options for children with brain cancer cut her time far too short.

To honor Kasey’s joyful, courageous, and loving spirit, we have established the Kasey Zachmann Fund for Medulloblastoma Research. Every dollar raised in her memory will go directly toward advancing cutting-edge research for Medulloblastoma with the hope of changing outcomes for other children facing this devastating disease.

We are deeply grateful to #TeamKVZ for walking alongside Kasey and her family every step of the way, and for continuing to support LBF’s mission to fund critical research.
